Here is a 1953 International RDFC converted into a 23’ stake body after it had seen better days pulling long haul freight trailers. It has a 208” wheelbase and is very useful for moving long loads without having to employ a trailer.
The load in this case is a yard and a half dipper stick and bucket from the Sheepscot Koehring 605 shovel kit. The body was scratch built from various Sheepscot parts and styrene. The stakes are 4x4 scale lumber that can be installed and removed from the body.
Sheepscot s/n 102187, Kit No. 95124.
